It has been a really long time since I have read a book, like years!! I am looking for a hunting book to read and prefer a Trad hunting book.

I would love to have some suggestions as to what book I should buy. thanks guys!!

"Autumn Leaves, A Bowhunter's Life" by: Mark Siedschlag.

Goood read, got a copy a month ago from Custom King on clearance.

Wow Daydreamer, you took the words out of my mouth (or off my key board)

Every time one of these threads come up I vote for Mark's book as it is usually one of the least mentioned, and in my opinion, one of the best I have ever read.

So I'll go with another one of Mark's books - "searching for the Wild"

Hunting the Hard Way, by Howard Hill. A very classical trad bowhunting book.

Nostalgic Lore of the Bow by Don and Dave McKeller. Simply wonderful in its own right and one of the best trad
Books ever. Just got an autographed copy to read to my 9 and 7 year olds!

Witchery of Archery-Maurice Thompson
The Old Bowhunter- Chet Stevenson
A Man Made of Elk- Dave Peterson
Just another Old Bowhunter- Tom Kidwell
An old version on Robin Hood- Howard Pyle

Probably my top 5 in no particular order

Any book written by E.Donnal Thomas Jr., especially his last one and the book dealing with Africa.

I like Fred Bear's field notes but once again I am biased...

Back Door Buck! Im not a reader it takes a lot to keep me in a book. Back Door Buck did that from cover to cover.

Day Dreamer & Whip, Thanks for mentioning Autum Leaves A Bowhunter's Life. It had been a long time since I'd read it - searched through my bookcases and found the book. A very good read!
